From d80837df37cb8897769f87f7a2034a9653168221 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Sutter Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 14:38:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iproute: Abort if nexthop cannot be parsed Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1624656 Upstream Status: iproute2.git commit ee53b42fd8b0b commit ee53b42fd8b0b0cdb857d0f5bf7467e22a3457d9 Author: Jakub Sitnicki Date: Wed Apr 11 11:43:11 2018 +0200 iproute: Abort if nexthop cannot be parsed Attempt to add a multipath route where a nexthop definition refers to a non-existent device causes 'ip' to crash and burn due to stack buffer overflow: # ip -6 route add fd00::1/64 nexthop dev fake1 Cannot find device "fake1" Cannot find device "fake1" Cannot find device "fake1" ... Segmentation fault (core dumped) Don't ignore errors from the helper routine that parses the nexthop definition, and abort immediately if parsing fails.
